To establish the new and changed roles in one's own company, it is necessary to create incentives. This applies in particular to specialised roles. Incentives could include, for example, the offer to attend selected SME congresses, the setting of a career path, training and monetary incentives. The new roles also provide increased visibility and participation in company decisions.
The Advanced Memory thus contains mainly user contexts of different work processes, if these cannot be loaded completely into the roll area. Since the storage area is accessible for all work processes, the work processes can also access external user contexts that lie here. In addition, the Advanced Memory contains a global area where data can be stored independently of user contexts. The extended memory size is determined by the values of em/initial_size_MB and em/global_area_MB. The first parameter determines the size of the storage area in which user contexts can be stored, and the second determines the size of the global area. Parameters for Private Storage Last but not least, there is the private storage, which is only used when the user context of a work process has used up all the other storage areas available to it, i.e. its share of the extended memory and its rolling area. In this case, the workprocess goes into PRIV mode. A workprocess in private mode is bound to its current user context and will not become free for other tasks until the current request is completed. If it has used up all the private memory allocated to it, the workprocess will then be restarted and the memory released. This behaviour is controlled with the abap/heaplimit parameter. At times, the user context may exceed the value of abap/heaplimit. The parameters abap/heap_area_total, abap/heap_area_dia and abap/heap_area_nondia define an upper limit for private storage. The abap/heap_area_total parameter defines how much private storage all workprocesses can use in total. The parameters abap/heap_area_dia and abap/heap_area_nondia, on the other hand, determine how much private storage a single (non-)dialogue workprocess can use.
Migration of the SAP systems' databases to the HANA Database,
NEW TECHNOLOGIES AND INNOVATIONS The role of IT is changing (bi-modal IT). On the SAP basis, this new bi-modal organisation is particularly true. On the one hand, it is necessary to continue to ensure the SAP operation in the usual stability and security, and on the other hand, to act as a business innovator in order to fulfil the role as a technology consultant for SAP technology. ADJUST SAP basis NAMING The original definition and naming of the SAP basis no longer meets today's task. Therefore, it is recommended to give the SAP basis a meaningful and contemporary description depending on the future organisation form. For example, the bi-modal role listed in Recommendation [A1] should be taken into account.
If you want to skip the backgrounds and prefer a direct step-by-step guide, you can jump directly into the last section. Preparation For this workaround, you need access to both the source system and the BW system. In addition, they shall have the possibility to access the SE37 and execute functional modules there. Especially in production systems this is a very critical justification. So assume that you may need a Firefighter user for this action. Working in the BW system Now that the preparations have been completed, you have to call a FuBa on the BW system and on the source system, which solves the connection on the respective page. Beginning on the BW system, go into the transaction SE37 and call the function block "RSAR_LOGICAL_SYSTEM_DELETE": RSAR_LOGICAL_SYSTEM_DELETE Enter the required values here. The following table helps you fill in: Field Description I_LOGSYS The logical name of the source system. The name of the source system, as found in RSA1, will be entered here. In addition, this name can also be found in the DB table TBDLT. I_FORCE_DELETE Boolean, X = Delete despite error messages I_NO_TRANSPORT Boolean, X = This change should not be transported to subsequent systems I_NO_AUTHORITY Boolean, X = Ignore Permission Checks Work in the source system In the source system, go to transaction SE37 and call the function block "RSAP_BIW_DISCONNECT" : The descriptions of the fields are as follows. These can be found in the RSBASIDOC source system connection table Field Description I_BIW_LOGSYS The logical name of the BW system. In the RSBASIDOC table, find the correct value in the column "RLOGSYS". I_OLTP_LOGSYS The logical name of the source system. The column ‘SLOGSYS’ in the table RSBASIDOC. I_FORCE_DELETE The logical name of the BW system. In the RSBASIDOC table, find the correct value in the column "RLOGSYS". Completion In the end, you have to call the respective function block in the BW and source system, fill in the parameters and execute the function block.
Tools such as "Shortcut for SAP Systems" are extremely useful in basic administration.
Security and compliance risks: significantly reduced.
Automated testing only Automated testing offers many advantages, whether it is a higher software quality through more comprehensive test coverage or reusability of test cases.
